Jack Reacher. Hero. Loner. Soldier. Soldierâs son. An elite military cop, he was one of the armyâs brightest stars. But in every copâs life there is a turning point. One case. One messy, tangled case that can shatter a career. Turn a lawman into a renegade. And make him question words like honor, valor, and duty. For Jack Reacher, this is that case.New Yearâs Day, 1990. The Berlin Wall is coming down. The world is changing. And in a North Carolina âhot-sheetsâ motel, a two-star general is found dead. His briefcase is missing. Nobody knows what was in it. Within minutes Jack Reacher has his orders: Control the situation. But this situation canât be controlled. Within hours the generalâs wife is murdered hundreds of miles away. Then the dominoes really start to fall.Two Special Forces soldiersâthe toughest of the toughâare taken down, one at a time. Top military commanders are moved from place to place in a bizarre game of chess. And somewhere inside the vast worldwide fortress that is the U.S. Army, Jack Reacherâan ordinarily untouchable investigator for the 110th Special Unitâis being set up as a fall guy with the worst enemies a man can have.But Reacher wonât quit. Heâs fighting a new kind of war. And heâs taking a young female lieutenant with him on a deadly hunt that leads them from the ragged edges of a rural army post to the winding streets of Paris to a confrontation with an enemy he didnât know he had. With his French-born mother dyingâand divulging to her son one last, stunning secretâReacher is forced to question everything he once believedâ¦about his family, his career, his loyaltiesâand himself. Because this soldierâs son is on his way into the darkness, where he finds a tangled drama of desperate desires and violent deathâand a conspiracy more chilling, ingenious, and treacherous than anyone could have guessed.
